Um, I was talking about Craigslist, 95% of the people on here type good enough. I was basically elaborating on what wythors said.

Arocdnicg to rsceearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer are in the rghit pcale. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit pobelrm. Tihs is buseace the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

But since the punctuation was good, you could all understand, right? Stop giving the guy hell for incorrect punctuation. That's lame.

Also to the OP, I feel for you. You got scammed. Deals that look good usually aren't. I would only take advantage of a great deal if I knew exactly what I was getting into.

I can't believe it, but my little brother fell for a con several weeks ago... Made me want to kill him. He tried to sell some OSU tickets online and was sent a message from someone outside of the country saying that they couldn't get money to so-and-so, and if he'd help, then they would send him a check for $500 more than he had to send to the other person. They sent him a check for $2700, he promptly sent off a money order or something for $2200. Wouldn't you know it, the $2700 check bounced and he was stuck the $2200 that he'd sent on to someone else. I'm embarrassed that my little brother, who is 19 now, was gullible enough to fall for that crap. I just can't believe that he didn't pick up the phone and ask someone he trusts, "hey does this sound right?" It's his money though... He got a $2,200 lesson. The moral story of this is, don't ever trust a stranger.

well it is a great deal if i wanted a moderate power 331, but i want a 347, and i want to eventually shoot for the 1000hp mark and thats why i bought the dart block, and if im spending the money on the block im gonna put some internals in it that can also handle the same power

It's cool, honestly I didn't even notice how your first post was written, at least you were using commas... unlike some folks on Craigslist.

"i thought you said you could use the crank as well? if your going to use the pistons then i cant take the other stuff back, it would be useless to me then too, plus paying for shipping and dealing with payments and everything again. i dont mean to be a dick but **** like this happens dealing with hot rod stuff, ive been in your position countless times and kinda just had to deal with it. also like i said before i was selling my stuff cuz i needed the money and its been spent. i would say just put the crank and rods on craigslist or ebay, you should be able to get more than you paid me for them, that was a 950 dollar kit and you got it for 500. again, i promise you i wasn't trying to screw you over, like selling my **** cuz i was desperate for money, if i knew it was a 331 i would have listed it as so and sold it to someone else, but they sent me the wrong kit to begin with. sorry man but i guess thats it, i feel terrible that this happened but thats the way it went." theres his last email
